For the uninitiated C.H.U.D. stands for “Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller” and yeah, that’s exactly what these stories involve albeit with a twist or two from each author’s own spin on the subject.

Aside from the stories you’ll find never before seen behind the scenes shots from the movie, interior artwork (check out the one below from Adam Markiewicz), and a fantastic cover done by Luke Spooner. The e-book also includes an access link to all kinds of goodies!

From sewers to subways, nightclubs to the Appalachian Mountains, you never know what is lurking beneath your feet but with the tales included here, you’ll at least get an idea what to expect, HaHa. Be in the know and pre-order your copy HERE!!
